Tournament raises over $25,360!
Canterbury, NH— The second annual Jake Deware Kindness Project Golf Tournament
was held on Saturday, September 24, 2022, at Canterbury Woods Golf Course with 124 golfers
and many friends and family to make for an unforgettable day.
An amazing $25,360 was raised for the Jake Deware Kindness Project and it would not
have been made possible without the following: Rowell’s Services (Presenting Sponsor), Pipe
Connections (gold and longest drive sponsors), Boston Beer company (gold sponsor), Nick
Harriman-State Farm (silver sponsor), and bronze sponsors PENCO Plumbing & Heating, Wood
& Clay Inc., Angelview Realty LLC, American Natural, and an anonymous bronze sponsor: the
beverage cart sponsorships from Kyle Minery and ALTA Equipment, as well as 20 different
green/tee sponsorships and monetary donations including a mystery sponsor made for a fun-
filled event.
Jake Deware of Belmont was 20 years young when he passed away from injuries
sustained in a dirt bike accident in November 2020. Loved ones of Jake quickly founded the Jake
Deware Kindness Project to continue his legacy of giving, his big heart, and random acts of
kindness. His giving spirit touched many and this project has helped those close to him heal and
feel connected as a community.
To date, the Jake Deware Kindness Project has sponsored:
- Belmont High School Robotics and Outdoor Environmental Clubs
- Children’s Fishing Derby
- Christmas trees for families in Belmont & Canterbury
- Best Buddies Program
- Comfort Critters to Shaker Regional School District for students having a bad day
- Funded an annual scholarship for a graduating senior going into the trades, as well as 2 book or tool grants to Belmont High School seniors
- Mary’s Dogs (rescue foundation)
- 90 children through the Hunter Safety Course
- 7 children to different programs at Highland Mountain Bike Park
